(UPI) — Younger generations are aging more rapidly, and this could be leading to an increased risk of cancer, a new study says.
People born in or after 1965 are 17% more likely to be experiencing accelerated aging compared to seniors born between 1950 and 1954, researchers found.
That faster aging is associated with a higher risk of certain cancers among adults younger than 55, also known as early-onset cancers, results show.
